The MSc is available both as a one year full-time programme, and in distance learning mode that is normally taken over two years (extendable up to 5 years). The course consists of four core modules plus research methods and a final dissertation.

Why choose this course?

We use an ‘applied approach’ to teaching, and our students work on real-life or reality based problems as experienced within the construction sector and its associated industries, consultants and clients.

You are also exposed to behavioural aspects of managing projects, which most construction project managers only experience when their careers are well-advanced.

This provides a more interesting and engaging learning environment than the traditional ‘study and examination’ approach to learning.
